1 Teacher Guide Teacher Answer Key and Kentucky Core Academic Standards for RDA 1 Grade 3 The Reading Diagnostic Assessment consists of twelve Multiple Choice Questions and one Short Answer Question. Remind students that they are to record their answers on the Student Answer Sheet only, except for the Short Answer Question, which will be written on this packet. Before Administering the Assessment Print all Student Answer Sheets and test booklets according to CASCADE directions. Copy the student pages. IMPORTANT: Use "photo" setting or "print and photo" setting and do NOT make photocopies of photocopies so that the students will be able to see the pictures clearly to answer the questions. Arrange for accommodations for ECE and ESL students as indicated on the IEP or PSP. Directions for Administering the Assessment Explain to the students that this assessment will help you determine what they know at this point and encourage them to do their best. Remind students of appropriate test-taking procedures. They should answer EVERY question and leave no blanks. If they are unsure of an answer, they should determine a best guess. Review how to record answers on the scan form. Distribute assessment material and review directions. Monitor students during the assessment to make sure they are recording answers correctly. When finished, test booklets should be collected and students should work on other material until all have completed the assessment. Collect student answer sheets and check for stray marks before scanning. After Administering the Assessment Scan student answer sheets in the LEXMARK Scanner according to directions. Score the Short Answer question and record in CASCADE. Analyze the data from the CASCADE reports. Results should be used to determine what next instructional steps are needed to move students toward attainment of reading standards.

6 Arctic Fox Adapted from Caroline Arnold s Snow Fox 1 It is winter in the far north. Ice and snow cover the land. The arctic fox is one of the few animals that can live in such a cold place. 2 The arctic fox has a strong body, short legs, and a long, bushy tail. It weighs between 5 and 20 pounds. From its nose to the end of its tail, it is about 32 inches long. This small fox is about the size of a large housecat. Keeping Warm 3 The arctic fox lives in Alaska, Canada, Siberia, and other places near the Arctic Circle. These are some of the coldest places on Earth! Sometimes the air is more than 50 degrees below zero. The fox s body helps it stay alive in the freezing arctic temperatures. The arctic fox curls up like a ball to stay warm in the snow. 4 To keep warm, the Arctic fox lives in a tunnel under the snow called a burrow. The burrow is a shelter from the harsh cold air. Its thick fur keeps the arctic fox warm during the cold months. A layer of short, fine hair grows next to the skin. On top of that is an outer layer of longer, thicker hairs. A covering of oil helps keep the fur dry. Even the fox s feet are covered with fur! When the fox sleeps, it uses its long, furry tail like a warm blanket. A Coat for Every Season 5 As the seasons change, so does the arctic fox. The fox s thick winter coat falls out in the spring. Then it grows a thinner coat for summer. The winter coat grows back again in fall. 6 Most arctic foxes are white in winter and brown in summer. These foxes live in places where
7 it is very snowy in winter. Their white winter fur makes them hard to see next to the snow. In summer, their brown fur helps them blend in among the arctic plants while they hunt for food. 7 Some arctic foxes have light gray fur in winter. In summer, their fur is dark gray or black. These foxes usually live near the ocean. Their gray fur helps them hide among the rocks while they hunt for fish, birds, and other animals that live near the water. Time for Pups 8 Arctic foxes raise their pups during the few warm months of the year. The pups are born between April and June. Fox parents may have eleven or more pups. That is a lot of hungry mouths to feed! 9 The pups grow quickly. By fall their bodies are covered with thick, warm fur. They have learned to hunt for their own food. They are ready to be on their own. Soon the air will grow cold, and snow will cover the ground. The sturdy arctic foxes are all set for another winter in the land of ice and snow. For more information about the arctic fox go to 1. Which kind of information is found under the heading Keeping Warm? A. where the arctic fox hunts for food B. when the arctic fox gives birth to pups C. how the arctic fox s body helps it survive D. how the arctic fox s winter coat falls out
8 2. The caption under the photograph tells you A. how the arctic fox cares for its pups. B. one way the arctic fox keeps warm. C. how the arctic fox s fur blends with where it lives. D. where the arctic fox sleeps during the day. 3. What information do you learn about the arctic fox under the heading A Coat for Every Season? A. A coating of oil helps keep the fur dry. B. It weighs between 5 and 20 pound. C. When it sleeps, it curls up like a ball. D. Some arctic foxes have light gray fur in winter. 4. The article, Arctic Fox, is mainly about A. all of the cold places the arctic fox lives. B. how the arctic fox cares for its pups in cold. C. how the arctic fox uses its body to stay alive. D. the life cycle of a fox in the arctic.
9 5. Read these sentences from the passage. The fox s thick winter coat falls out in the spring. Then it grows a thinner coat for summer. The winter coat grows back again in fall. The word coat in these sentences means A. the hair or fur of an animal B. something warm to wear C. how the seasons change D. a place to hide from the cold 6. Which detail explains how the arctic fox s body helps it stay alive in the arctic? A. It weighs between 5 and 20 pounds. B. Fox parents may have eleven or more pups. C. Sometimes the air is more than 50 degrees below zero. D. Its thick fur keeps the arctic fox warm during the cold months. 7.

10 A Chinese Fable: Finish What You Start by Heidi Chang 1 Gai Gung was the smartest student in his class at school. He had been chosen to study with a teacher in a distant city. Gai Gung lived with his mother, a silk weaver. He would have to leave home to study with the teacher. 2 Mother, I don t know if I can go, Gai Gung said when it was time to leave. He knew he wouldn t return for a long time. 3 You must go, Gai Gung, his mother said, putting some steamed buns into his bag. You are special. You have been picked to study with this teacher. 4 Gai Gung hung his head as he got into Mr. Shu s wagon. Mr. Shu was their neighbor. He was going to the city for business, and he was giving Gai Gung a ride. 5 Do not worry, Mr. Shu said to Gai Gung s mother. I will make sure your son arrives safely. 6 Thank you, she said, bowing. Gai Gung s mother felt proud as she watched Mr. Shu and her son ride off down the road. 7 The next day, Gai Gung s mother started weaving a new cloth for her son. She worked into the night and until the next morning. She stopped when she heard a wagon coming up the road. She ran outside to see if it was Mr. Shu. 8 I am here, Mother! I have come back! It was Gai Gung. He was riding in the wagon next to Mr. Shu. 9 What? Gai Gung s mother said as the wagon came closer. You have been gone for only one day. 10 I decided I could not stay. Mr. Shu was returning today, so I came back with him. I missed my home too much.
11 11 Gai Gung, his mother said, come here. I want to show you something. Gai Gung could tell she was not happy. He followed her into the house. 12 You see, I have been working all day and night on this cloth. She pulled on a piece of thread, and the cloth began to come apart. 13 Mother, what are you doing? Gai Gung asked. He tried to stop his mother from pulling any more thread. 14 I am doing what you have done. You cannot stop partway. You must finish what you start, or you will have nothing. Her fine silk cloth was now torn in half. 15 Mother, Gai Gung said, looking at her, I understand now what you mean. 16 The next day, Mr. Shu offered to take Gai Gung back to the city. Gai Gung brought along his mother s beautiful piece of cloth. She had finished it for him, and he never forgot her words. Gai Gung completed his studies with the teacher and became a great student. 8. Which words from the passage show that Gai Gung was scared to leave his village? A.

She does not want Gai Gung to take such a lovely cloth so far away from home. C. She feels the cloth was not as well-made as it could have been. D.
